circumstantial tree Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 How about the setlist not being published at all here? (even with the spoiler) And that if somebody wants to know, they can PM somebody who attended and have it be known that way. Just a suggestion.

Brava Doh! Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Nope. That would suck. If someone doesn't want to know, excercise some self-control and just stay out of the tour forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a suggestion. that taking away alot of the fun leading up to the start of the tour and getting confirmation. even if posting the setlist wasn't allowed, people would still be posting with their likes, dislikes, or utter hate for the setlist.

To try and police that would be futile. We're not going to start removing threads and such to try and keep that info off the board. As was mentioned, your best bet is to stay out of the Tour forum. Once the first show is over, or if the setlist gets leaked before then, this whole forum becomes a spoiler forum. Enter at your own risk. The one thing I'll reiterate is: NO SONG TILES IN THREAD TITLES. Thread titles can be seen from the main forum page, and they'll be seen by everyone, even those who are avoiding the tour forum.

USB Connector Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 How about you don't look in threads indicating setlist spoilers? Why should we be punished because some have no self control. I want to know and when I know I will want to discuss it with others who know it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pfrushfan0122 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 All I want to do is find out what the setlist is and that is all... I really don't want to ruin the ambiance/surprise of what interesting approach they take to stage design, lights, hilarious intro videos etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J2112YYZ Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Obviously the OP is aware of the existence of the internet because they post on this forum. There are other places besides here that will post the setlists. You almost have to leave the internet completely to avoid spoilers for any major tours today. Aslo, I read on last tour the setlist was posted on Rush's web page opening night. There's a good chance they might do that again and if the band doesn't have a problem letting the fans know what they're playing, then we should have no problem looking at the set before the show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pdurbin22 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I agree that all it takes is some self-control. However, I'm fortunate enough to be going to the Chicago show which means I only have to hold out for one week. Any longer and I'm afraid I would find out unintentionally, and even still I'm worried about people blabbing at the arena pre-show. I may have to bring earmuffs! I went to the Time Machine tour without knowing the setlist (minus Moving Pictures and the two new tracks) and it made a huge difference in my enjoyment of the show. Not knowing that the second song would be "Time Stand Still" - which I was dying to hear for the first time - made it that much sweeter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J2112YYZ Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I like looking at the setlists before the concert now. That way you're not disappointed after the show if they don't play a certian song you really like. Before the days of setlist spoilers that happened to me a few times. I would leave a great show in a bad mood because the band didn't play this or that. Now when you see the set ahead of time you can prepare for what you will hear and not be completely letdown at the end of the show. Not that I don't know Rush's discography front to back by now, but knowing the setlist ahead of time also allows you to brush up on some songs they might do that aren't always in your regular Rush rotation.

circumstantial tree Posted August 28, 2012 Author Share Posted August 28, 2012 somebody will post it before me anyway, but I'll be attending the opening show in NH. I'll be writing down the songs as they are played, mainly for my own records. However, I'm sure people will be transmitting the song titles as they are played via their cellphones. Only in Rushdom are there people who want to be "the first" at dispensing new info on the band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
